Nutrition - General Information
Dog and Puppy Nutrition info.
Nutrition – is the foundation of which good health is built upon. A biologically appropriate diet along with proper supplementation will support the body’s own growth and healing potential. So, I have shared some core suggestions below to set your puppy up for health success with the best nutritional start possible.
Elk Velvet Antler – This is a superior joint aid comprised of naturally occurring nutrients that are tonifying to the kidneys, and help to reduce pain and inflammation. This supplement more importantly supports the growth and maintenance of bones, tissues, joints and synovial fluids. This is best to start young to protect against arthritis and any growth hurtles!
Pro Tip: – Collagen will help support connective tissue growth alongside EVA.
Daily Multi Plus: – This is exactly what it states, a Daily Multi vitamin including a variety of vitamin packed plants and whole foods. The Plus stands for the addition of a Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics blend and New Zealand glandular. This is the perfect supplement to round out any diet that may be lacking, and provide foundational nutrition.
Diarrhea Relief: – is a fibrous powder mixture inclusive of organic herbs and beneficial probiotics to soothe and relieve symptoms.
Diarrhea Relief : – A whole food supplement to provide bulk to stool and reduce inflammation of the colon. This can be used with any hiccups that may occur when transitioning food, to nervousness, or anything in between!
